I was slightly put off from his strange gesture of affection, but still I did not move nor flinch from his touch. My skin trembled in a delightful shiver as his rough nose moved across my face and down the length of my neck. He returned my nip with one of his own, clipping the skin of my whithers with his strong teeth. So I could trust him, eh? He told me that indeed I could, but it was not in my nature to not be cautious, so I did not immediately fling myself about, calling out with a shrill voice to pronounce like some light hearted fool that I could trust another. No, I was a logical horse, what more could be asked of any? But could I be trusted?
Pretty words, dear Shiva.
This time the suspected sadness in my voice broke through so that the emotion behind my words could not be doubted. Flicking my tail, I allowed my soft ebony nose to once again explore the pattern and texture of his lovely hide.

I lifted my head, alarmed that such a sad sound could come from Laioni's maw. The maw that let out such strong words of hate and passion, one that could instill fear in the darkest of hearts. And this pitiful Light voice seemed to echo out of her mouth. It hurt me to be honest. Immediatly I got closer, my eyes staring right into hers, snout touching her own. She had been exploring my plain black hide with her nose, but I moved out from under them, feeling that it was her excuse to not say much more.
"Laioni, dear Queen, pray, do not keep this from me. I will lend myself for whatever you need, whenever you need it. I will help you, mark my words. What bastard made you feel this way?" Jerking my head up, I looked around, nares flaring, trying to find the scent of the one who had hurt my Queen.
"Who ever it is, I will beat the shit out of him, and I will do it happily. I will not stand for someone hurting my Queen. I will not stand for someone hurting YOU." This was whispered low, into her ears where she would be sure to understand how much I loved her, how much that she meant to me, as more than my Queen, but also the one that I courted.
I snorted softly, my own nose exploring her silky dapple grey pelt. And let me say this. The exploration was a success. The dapple grey pelt was a smokey color, with little white spots here and there, and black seemed to be the underlying color, smeared over by the grey and then white. "Tell me," I whispered in her towers, as my nose snuffled its way, my ivories nipping lovingly at her curvature. "I trust you, you trust me."

A smile pulled itself across my lips, like that of a drying leaf being pulled sharply apart, my kissers dry and tugging into my grin with much resistance. It was bitterness that formed my sour smirk was from the words that left the mouth of my lovely Shiva. Words that did not apply to me, for none had sour me, none had turned to me and uttered words of traitors into my eager harks. I did not know heart break or heart ache, Shiva's thoughts had formed much to rashly, for the words coming from my mouth were not hurt because of a stallion, but hurt from the mere existence of myself. Even being a Dark can take its tole. I can not assume that a Light never tires of being happy and carefree at the world, and I will not tolerate any thinking that every dark relishes the need to cast greedy, hateful eyes upon the world and those who live in it. Trust me, at times it gets tiring.
Looking back to Shiva, I gently traced his hide with my soft ebony nose, this time a real smile gently caressing the lines of my face. His sudden...aggressive demeanor was heartening when he aimed his affections towards me and my well being. It was like a breath of fresh air lovingly kissing the openings of my nares with each greedy lungful inhaled. It was life giving.
Shiva, your care is loved by me, but none have tainted my heart or done me wrong.
Tell me, do you think that you have the skill to be a dark king at my side?

She finally gave a true genuine smile, one that could make any Dark stallion sway at his knees and fall for her in an instant. But not I. I had fallen for her a long time ago, when I first saw her as a colt. But this feeling, this incessant fluttering in my barrel was awkward, different. And weird.
"Damn good thing that none have done you wrong." Snoring, my hide shivered as her nares and lips moved along my pelt. A wonderful sensation. I returned the gesture, my own lips moving back and forth in a soothing gesture. But her question made me perk up, towers alert. Drawing my head back, I raised it high, surprised by that question.
"My dear Laioni, I have many reasons why I would be a good King by yourside. No other stallion has known you longer than me, except for the older ones, ones that were around when Layla was born. I have the skill, the experience to handle an herim.
"I have the love to give to you, the confidence to pour into you, the heart and soul of one who would never betray you or our kind. I am the child of the once mighty Crucio, highest ranking member that was in Layla's eyes. I am a Dark through and through, with a vicous temper and unforgiving heart except to those that I love." Getting closer to her, I began to whisper in her auds.
"I have the compassion of an experienced lover, and the sturdy rock formation of a strong leader. I have nothing but loyalty and allegience to you." Nipping at her forelock, I looked deep into her eyes, looking at the sadness that was at the back, and the curiosity in the front. She was a huge mass of emotions, and needed to spill it out.

Decision warped my mind in unpleasant ways, twisting and shaping my thoughts with disturbing suddenness. This entire day I had spent with Shiva, and I must admit, I had enjoyed myself. But the sight of the sun falling from the sky and teasing the horizon reminded me that time was passing and soon it would be dark. All of a sudden my mind returned to the fact that did not exist in a day dream were I could simply linger and be. No, the world were I lived was real and full of danger and pain. In an instant my face contoured from being that of a lover to being the expression of an assassin; cool and business like before a kill. Not only had the setting sun reminded me that the day was moving along, but it had brought to my attention that days were passing and I must make a choice.
Quickly, I made one. For a few instances, my mind was worried; was I being to rash, was the decision right? But I pushed these to the back of my mind, knowing that I might have to deal with them later. I could still pretend that I lived in a world were things like that didn't matter, even if it was only for a few days. Parting my lips, I sent a cold stream of icy breathe across Shiva's fine hide, a smirk upon my lips. Only recently had I discovered my inherited gift of an element; ice.
Shiva, you shall be my King.

I watched the sun set, the cool breeze of night touching my face. It was cool and welcoming, much unlike my current home and land of choice, which was hotter than the gates of hell. This breeze, its whispering form, was a welcoming feeling, and one that made the hairs on my neck stand with goosebumps. Another lovely feeling. Shaking my head, I turned back to my sweet Laioni. The one that I had come to love, the one that I ditched Toxic for. No offense to Toxic, but Laioni just appealed to me much more. Only there was no look of discomfort anymore, no longing in her eyes. Instead, that mask of the warrior came back, the one that could make even the weakest rise up to fight. I arched my neck, nostrils flaring as excitement washed through me. She was returning. Laioni was dropping the sad emotion now, rising again back to her pedistal of command.
And then she said those words that made me want to shout with glee. I was to be her King? She had choosen me!? A smirk fell upon my lips as her icey blast froze my back, making the hairs stay still. I shivered my hide, the little ice crystals breaking off. Getting closer to her, I nipped at her forelock, eyes bearing into hers with love and fierceness at the same time. "Thank you my dear," I murmured, tracing a sweet pattern of swirls down her neckline to her shoulder, where I nibbled playfully. The night brings dangerous things, and amongst them comes the hunter, the one who travels in the shadows, stalking his prey, doing anything he can to capture it. Now, I hadn't quite captured Laioni yet, but believe me, we belonged together. She'd already stolen my tiny little black heart. Now it was my turn. "It is an honor to be called your mate." Tossing my head, I trotted around her surveying the creature that chose me.
"My herd, its members, are all under your command now too. Malandra, Toxic Tears, Hgra....There are only three, but only because I was too....preoccupied." With a smirk, I stopped behind her. That icey power was one of the best. And I had a feeling that it might be the one that she would get. She had an icey tone, one that made me shiver with glee. One that Layla had never been able to adopt. "Now, do you wish to know my tactics of wooing you? I simply was myself. I didn't try to be someone else, I was myself. Conniving. And I let you talk, get comfortable around me before I became charming. Not many stallions care about a mare's opinion, but the damn sure better because the best mare around is their Queen." Coming closer, I narrowed my eyes. "And if they don't respect you...." Stamping a hoof, the ground vibrated and cracked, the dry earth sending up dust. "I will crush them." Nibbling her shoulder again, I stood side by side with her, letting our hides touch. Ecstasy...

With a small, curt smile spread across my entrancing face, I allowed Shiva to spill his words, letting them drip into my harks like a young bear eagerly awaiting the sweet taste of honey. The gentleness and fierce devotion of his tone was so sincere, I was almost touched in a deep, dark crevice of my soul that I had not known existed. I was unsure of other horses, but I knew that if I had been in love, I would not have known it. With nothing to compare it to, it would have a difficult time deciding what my emotions amounted to. Love, lust, or neither of the time, I did not know. But what I was certain of was that the presence of Shiva made my heart beat madly and my insides to twist in a surprisingly pleasant way. Love, lust? Giving it a name made no difference to me, naming my emotions did not make them any more or less real.
I could say though that I was quite pleased with my decision. Shiva's loyalty and passion would make him ideal as my King. Of course he would have to learn quickly the art of being royal and the time consuming role of being the Queen's consort. Being King was not some romantic scene full of love sonnets and pretty words. What was happening here, now in this meadow was not reality. It was the place where our emotions had taken us. But a horse can not be controlled by emotion, especially not royal ones. Broadening my smile, I sent another cool kiss to tickle the flesh of his shoulder, my icy breath swirling and misting in the warmth of the meadow. Turning my head towards the setting sun, I motioned for Shiva to follow me.
We should go home. But if you like we'll stay here a bit more. The lights have scattered home for fear of the coming dark.

I smiled, following her. I would follow her to the ends of the earth. Her icey breath swirled in the air behind us, slowly evaporating. I glanced around. She was right. The Lights, the pussys they were, had left to go running home, afraid that if they stayed in the dark, one of us dark minded equines might snatch them up. Ha! And scared they should be. The lot of them should just accept defeat.
"Laioni, we could stay. But we could go home. There are new members for our royal herd to induct." He smirked, realizing that Toxic would be very pissed. Very pissed indeed. And Hgra was fine being underneath him, so she would willingly come. But Malandra, oh that beautiful temper that she had. She would come with a fight. And thats just what they needed out of a servant.
I picked up my pace. I honestly wanted to go home, to scout the lands and make sure that no stallion with ideas of taking the throne came in. And making sure that nothing undesirable came. Maybe we could go and gather some slaves one day. That would be fun! "We should return home. Theres no use in us staying here, when theres things to be done back home." Snorting, I picked up my pace from trot to canter, nickering to her.
